Chapter 7: A New Profession
The sun was shining brightly, the sun was scorching, and even the air seemed to be mixed with a wave of heat.
It's barely 10 a.m., but the temperature seems to be heading towards the 35-degree mark.
In such somewhat brutal temperatures, only those who need to make a living are present on the streets. Therefore, although it is a provincial capital, it does not look lively at all.
I don't know if it's because Uncle Ling joined, but this time the school sent a special car to pick him up. And it's the kind of passenger bus, which can accommodate more than 60 people at most.
Even if Wang Yafei and the whole class sat on it, the car could fit it.
"Why are there idle people in the car?" Wang Yafei tilted his head, as if he was trying to think.
And Xiao Ding half-squinted, and his gaze was always locked on a certain person.
In addition to the fact that both of them were a little unnatural, Xue Nuo and Tong Tong were also slightly embarrassed, feeling that there was a special smell of "gunpowder" in the bus.
"Sister Yiyi, can you stop for a moment." Xue Nuo said to the girl sitting in the front row.
"I'm interviewing, this time the school has a mission, how do you tell me to stop." Zhou Yiyi said with wide eyes.
"But Sister Tong Tong didn't rest well yesterday, so let her rest for a while." Xue Nuo said.
"I also know Tong Tong very well, and I know that she is the kind of person who is full of energy." Zhou Yiyi shook her head and said.
Xue Nuo pouted, since he got in the car, this Zhou Yiyi has been pestering Tong Tong to ask questions. It's true that the school has given the task, but it can't be like this.
The competition hasn't officially started yet, so what's there to ask now?
On the other hand, the beautiful woman Huang Chen, she just sat by the window and didn't say a word.
Huang Chen, who was sitting by the window, occasionally closed her eyes, as if she was closing her eyes to recuperate, but in Xiao Ding's opinion, she looked better when she didn't close her eyes.
"FORGET IT, I'LL GO FIND MY MISTER." Zhou Yiyi saw Xue Nuo's displeasure.
"Yes, you go to him, he's the energetic kind." Xue Nuo pointed to Wang Yafei, who was sitting in front.
"What is Mister's RIGHT?" Wang Yafei asked loudly.
"That's what the true son of heaven means, Brother Fei, why don't you even understand this, I think you did it on purpose." Xie Ping said with a wink.
"What a sister you." In fact, Wang Yafei often hears this word, in the past, the TV station would rebroadcast idol dramas over and over again in the afternoon, and there was often this word in it, but Wang Yafei never knew what this word was intended to express.
"Brother Fei, you are innocent, why do you really say bad things about Tang." Xie Ping said with a smile.
"Don't stir up relationships between classmates." Wang Yafei said angrily.
It can be seen that Xie Ping is very happy today, and Wang Yafei also knows why Xie Ping is happy.
Xie Ping's trip, in addition to shouldering the heavy responsibility of being the leader of the cheerleading team, was also equivalent to a trip with Xue Nuo.
Wang Yafei looked at Xie Ping with a treacherous expression, as if he wanted to disturb his date.
Xie Ping was furious by Wang Yafei: "Brother Fei, I don't speak, I'll listen to the song with headphones." ”
"Just sit aside and give me the seat first." Before Xie Ping could hang up the headphones, Zhou Yiyi had already stood beside him.
"Okay, okay, I'll give you the precious opportunity to be alone with Phineas." Xie Ping began to squeeze his eyebrows again.
"I've been alone with him many times." Zhou Yiyi said very casually.
"Eldest sister, do you want to talk like that." Wang Yafei said helplessly in his heart.
This time I went to the game, in addition to the cheerleaders of the players, there were also two "reporters". For a person like Wang Yafei, this is definitely not a bad thing.
But this time I went to the game, and it was not like before. In the past, no one cared about it, but now there is Uncle Ling in the formation, which makes Wang Yafei dare not be presumptuous at all.
Even if Zhou Yiyi wanted him to brag to his heart's content, Wang Yafei could only make a draft first.
The provincial competition has not officially started, but another very inexplicable race has been launched on this bus.
Zhou Yiyi chose to start asking for news everywhere from the moment she came up, but Huang Chen did not move.
That's probably the difference between a goddess and a woman.
After the screening of the municipal competition, a total of 32 school teams entered the provincial competition.
To highlight professionalism, the tournament will also feature a double-elimination format that is best suited for esports.
As soon as they came up, the teams of the thirty-two schools would fight each other. Every round is a BO3 - two wins out of three, the winner moves on to the next round, and the loser doesn't just roll up and go home.
The loser will fall into the lower bracket and then struggle in the "swamp" with the other losers.
If you lose one more round in the lower bracket, as the name suggests......
Double elimination, if you lose one more round in the lower bracket, you can prepare a "ticket homecoming".
Therefore, this format is very suitable for e-sports, cruel and warm, even if a strong team accidentally falls into the lower bracket, they can still rely on their own strength to fight back.
But in the final analysis, unless the champion is directly determined by drawing, then in the end, you have to speak with strength.
If the strength is not good, you will not be able to fight back if you fall into the loser's group.
Although the information about the format is already known, the specific match situation will be decided after the report will be made on the spot.
The game was arranged in the provincial city center gymnasium, which is also the home of the provincial basketball team.
"I didn't think I could step into this gymnasium today, hahaha." Wang Yafei is comforting Zhou Yiyi's athletic feelings.
is different from others, it seems that Zhou Yiyi still likes this style of having a match and not a match, from the sports channel to the gymnasium, from the gymnasium to Wang Yafei's hobbies in the past.
Whether this is an interview or a "heart-to-heart", no one can say clearly.
"Hey, can you be quiet?" Xue Nuo interjected, she felt that she had done something wrong just now, and she shouldn't have reminded Zhou Yiyi that there was still Wang Yafei in this car.
"It's not that you can't see anyone, why be quiet, if you want to be a listener, then you can sit down." Wang Yafei said with a smile.
"I want to be your wife and slap you twice." Xue Nuo rebuked.
"You're really boring, and you just want to stir up conflicts. But I'm in a good mood today, it's just that adults don't remember villains, so I don't have the same knowledge as you. ”
Wang Yafei chose to ignore it, which made Xue Nuo very faceless.
Sitting back in his seat, Xue Nuo was still muttering: "I know bragging all day long, and I'm not afraid of nightmares at night." ”
Thinking of this, Xue Nuo suddenly sneered, it was obvious that bragging was not compatible with nightmares, Xue Nuo's current idea was more in line with Wang Yafei's magical logic.
Ling Feng, who was sitting at the front, had already flipped through the pamphlet in his hand, which was very crumpled.
This booklet is the rulebook for the contest and details the rules to be followed during the contest and other relevant instructions.
In the draw - the principle of avoidance of the same city will not be followed, i.e. teams from the same city may also meet directly in the first round.
Wei School was directly drawn to Yunjia No. 1 Middle School in the first round? Ling Feng couldn't rule out this possibility.
But in reality, it doesn't matter who draws it, it's actually the same. Your goal is the championship, not the quarterfinals, so you'll have to beat all the strong opponents.
Touch it early and touch it late, and you have to touch it sooner or later.
But Ling Feng still didn't want to meet the strong team too early, this was because Ling Feng felt that Wang Yafei and they had no experience at all.
It's the first time I've participated in this kind of competition, and I'm sure I'm nervous, so I might not be in a good state at first. Wait until you're a little familiar with it, and then get bigger and better.
So don't run into a strong team as soon as you come up, it will be slightly more beneficial to your side.
Ling Feng was thinking about the draw, but the "cowhide" blown by Wang Yafei came from the back row from time to time, which would more or less affect Ling Feng's thinking.
However, Ling Feng didn't want to stop Wang Yafei.
In the past, when Ling Feng participated in the competition for the first time, it was even more lively than now, basically there were pictures in the car you could imagine, and he almost sang karaoke directly in the car, but after entering the profession, there was no more like this. Normally, when you go out in a race, all the players will only play their own games in the car. Some read novels, some text, and everyone will have their own things to do anyway.
Perhaps, bragging is also a manifestation of passion. Only when it is still fresh will you have this passion, and after a long time, you will only be left with numb coping.
Probably every profession is like this, and over time it gets tired.
But Ling Feng is now engaged in a new career, so he is also very "passionate"!
Ling Feng flipped through the pamphlet a few more times, and he began to think about the rest.
This year's provincial tournament will have a commentator and a soundproof room on the main stage, but only one game per round will be scheduled on the main stage.
The rest of the competition area is still an Internet café structure, with two rows of machines lined up and ten players facing each other.
The atmosphere of the competition is different in different regions.
There is a soundproof room on the main stage, so there is nothing to say, but the soundproof room is also high and cheap, and the effect of the high-priced soundproof room is obvious, basically even if there is no noise outside, you can't hear anything inside.
But if it's just a cheap soundproof room, it won't work so well.
The noise of the audience can be transmitted through the gaps, and the sound of the narration will also be looming. For the noise of the audience, maybe Wang Yafei can still adapt to it, because they have already experienced it when they were competing in the city.
But if it's the voice of the commentary......
This would be a matter of concern.
Commentary is a job for the audience, and what a commentator has to do is to guide the audience to watch the game better.
In addition to reporting on the situation on the field, they will also make some analysis of the current situation.
"XX guide, what do you think of the current situation?" This is a very common commentary line.
However, the analysis of the narrator is actually oriented to the audience, which means that their analysis will be biased towards guidance. So a lot of times, the analysis of the narration is more like making up a story and writing a script.
